The New Sevtec Fan-Tastic Sev


FAN1.jpg (33k)

The new Fan-Tastic sev is the result of combining the best features of craft built by Sevtec in over 3 decades of engineering expertise and experience. It is sold completely built and ready to run, by Sevtec.

Gone long ago on Sevtec sevs is the noisy, cantankerous, fuel guzzling two stroke engine normally used on surface skimmers. The brake system is further improved, making Fan-Tastic maneuverability in stopping, turning, and reversing direction, well, fantastic. A 25hp mild mannered four cycle engine is used to give just as much or more performance as hovercraft with two or more times as much power.
